Which bay? Poole no. Christchurch yes! Ch6

No! Put a ring through the nose of a one ton bull and it will follow you because of teh pain. Put a hook in a fish and it will fight back. If the hook was in me I know which one I would be like!

Does this mean 2 single handed boats can fish a comp as long as they are close to each other? Definition of "close" please? My worry for Yaks is that I am assuming the distance may not be far but being at anchor could slow any rescue attempt unless the rope was buoyed and ready to release? On the drift - how long would it take a Yak to help a friend if they were 50 yds apart in a big sea with wind and tide against them? I know we have the same issues potentially on Boats but many of us have initial rescue devices to throw to an overboard crew member. This is where a demo \ talk from an experience Yaker would really help. R

Last minute I know, but I am popping in on Trailer Tek Tomorrow first thing. If you want something I am happy to pick it up for you. But I need to know before 8:30 am - email \ pm me. Rob http://www.trailertek.com/acatalog/indexcat1.html

Hi, I have always had Lowrance and been very pleased. I won a Colour Combi (not sure I have mentioned that before!!!! ) and it was great but in the end I got annoyed with the split screen so now have an additional plotter. They share the same GPS receiver and are on a Lowrance Network - so all is good. Remember to factor in the connectors and network bits if you plan to go for two. The Lowrance should however come with enough bits to join them together, I am not sure re. other brands. p.s. a Lowrance is teh same as an Eagle, but I am not sure if there are any compatiability issues. We do have a sponsor of the open who supplies kit - Martin B shoudl be abel to davise who they are. Rob

I think the idea of Yacks in the club is good. But what is "fishing in pairs"? Would you be in radio contact, sight of each other, attached to the same anchor? I think it is open to discussion as that condition in a comp could be abused and we wouldn't want anything happen to a club member, especially in a comp. Perhaps a Yak run through and demo (bring one to a meeting) woudl be interesting. Rob

Me too!

Congratulations Bobbi and Colin. I am sure you will enjoy her. Tight lines. Rob

Welcome. Rob

Hope you enjoyed it. Rob

Nice one Neal!!!! My wide saw it yesterday off of Alum Chine - it was within a couple of hundred meters of the shore. R

Excellent - well done, nice to get off the mark! Good luck in her. Rob

Nice reminder Mick! Just a thought, some of the GPS receivers (white mushroom things!) need updating too such as the older Lowrance LGC-2000. Rob

Should we not publish the results on the website homepage as I am sure plenty of visitors will be logging on to check out the result? Rob

Unlucky Dave. Your taking the Safety Office role too seriously, you only need to dream up these senarios!!! Tight lines and good oil pressure. Rob

Apart from getting ahead of it and laying a "rope stinger" there was not much to do - I like the way the engine didn't stall!

Twas a good turnout and an enjoyable day. Best bit was the pint afterwards!!! Well done to the Little Gurnard, the smake beater - bit of a David and Goliath going on!! Rob

With 200 copies of the list printed without Corkwing or Cuckoo and some already handed out, I dont think they should be entered now. There would be a riot if a fish not on some people's official species list won any kind of prize!! And I wouldn't want to be the Fish Recorder \ Official who would need to deal with that + it could well harm the reputation of this comp\club for future years. Rob

I am guessing that it hasn't changed, but in fact the previoulsy posted list was not the official one.

Put it inside the boat.

If you don't have a data contract on your phone don't use it!! I have ahad some of my users rack up bills of

There are plenty of fossils in the grey \ blackish rock about 1/2 mile East of the Cobb\Harbour. Though this is a little soft and not sure how durable - but easy to break and extract the fossils. Rob

Maybe that is where you are going wrong???!!! I thougt theWest Country was behind the times when I lived there at Uni!!!!

Trailertek - is all you need to know!

Welcome Derek - I will be on holiday this weekend, but good luck and just so you know, we use CH6 as the main club channel. Tight lines and enjoy Rob
